Just got these in this week. Much nicer looking than the others
I got in two weeks ago.

These about about 1/4" to 1/2"
Grades? Opinions?

Three new babies with one of my older shrimps

I hope to get a few more shrimp tanks running soon and separate these.
DO you think breeding my old and new will improve the colors of my older ones? Or would that be just dumb to do?

Thanks
Steve

You've got A-SSS Grades. Very nice. What do the parents of the shrimplets look like?

Breeding old and new ones may or may not improve the colors, depends on the genes of the shrimp. Also, food and water quality plays a role in coloration.

Very nice. What kind of substrate are you using? Where did you purchase them?

I use ADA Aquasoil in all of my shrimp tanks.

I got them off of Aquabid from Cha Vang, I know he has more for sale also. I've bought from Cha in the past all with very good out come!
